As the New Year approaches, it’s smart to get a head start on your blog posts. December is crazy, but you need to be ready for the big traffic that comes to bloggers in January. It might seem a little early, but this way you can get your posts written before the holidays, that way you can spend your time celebrating instead of blogging.
The New Year is a perfect opportunity for bloggers to get new readers! People are searching for ideas on how to be healthier, exercise more, be more organized, be a better cook, etc. Your blog can tell them HOW the can carry out their New Year’s resolutions!

I love the idea of making some type of opt in bonus to attract new people in the New Year. I know what I need to work on this weekend. I have an idea of what I’m going to write about, but haven’t actually done it yet.
Do you have any tutorials on setting up mail chimp or another recommended mail list providers?
